News: Zhou Yan -Future Hong Kong and Macao Office?

Just in the past Tuesday (July 11), the Hong Kong and Macau Work Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held a meeting, marking the beginning of the operation of the Hong Kong and Macao work system in Beijing.Influence.No wonder the news was announced by the official website of the Hong Kong and Macau Office of the State Council, and then attracted great attention from Hong Kong and Macao politics.

From the official photo of the "family portrait" released, the leadership of the Central Hong Kong and Macao Office of the Central Hong Kong and Macao Office was collectively unveiled at this meeting.In addition to the first leader, Xia Baolong, director of the Central Hong Kong and Macao Office, chaired the meeting and delivered a speech. Song Zhe and Deng Zhonghua, former deputy directors of the Hong Kong and Macao Office of the State Council, also attended the meeting.As for Zhou Yan, the second leader and executive deputy director of the Central Hong Kong and Macau Office, who just took office, it also attracted much attention from the outside world.

Zhou Yan, 59, is a native of Xiangyang, Hubei. When he was young, he studied and made professional studies at Hubei Institute of Technology. He worked at his hometown for 36 years. He started as a cadre at the grassroots level.Chairman of Automobile Bearing Group.

During the working period, Zhou Yan studied at the law of law at Wuhan University, and studied at the Master of Electronics and Communication Engineering at Huazhong University of Science and Technology. In 2001, he was selected by the National University to participate in the training of senior management talents in the United Kingdom. It lasted for half a year.He used to be the Secretary of the Xianao Municipal Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, the mayor of Shiyan City, and the secretary of the Shiyan Municipal Party Committee. In December 2016, he became the secretary of the Yichang Municipal Party Committee after he became a member of the Standing Committee of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee.

In 2020, Zhou Yan was transferred to the Standing Committee of the Henan Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China and deputy secretary of the party group of the provincial government.In January 2021, Zhou Yan served as executive deputy governor of Henan Province.In October of the same year, he was promoted to the Deputy Secretary of the Henan Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, and in November, he also served as the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.

From the perspective, Zhou Yan worked in Hubei and Henan for a long time, and it can be said to have no intersection with Hong Kong.This also continues the changes in the appointment of senior cadres in the Hong Kong and Macau systems in recent years -the debut of politicians, and there are local practitioners to eat.When the anti -repair campaign broke out in Hong Kong in 2019, Xia Baolong, who had no experience in Hong Kong and Macao's work, was ordered to enter the main Hong Kong and Macau Office in danger.His appointment shows the official employment of Beijing -eclectic and unpredictable theory of age.

Some analysts pointed out that Zhou Yan and Hong Kong and Macao lack of origin, and the surface is insufficient, but it also means that there is no involvement with local interest groups, and work can be held in the future.In addition, Zhou Yan has worked in local work, has a wealth of grass -roots work experience, and has a strong age.

It is worth noting that in the Chinese officialdom, the deputy director of the executive deputy director is mainly to take over the host when the director is absent.Zhou Yan became the executive deputy director of the Central Hong Kong and Macao Office and became the second figure in the Hong Kong and Macau Office. It is inevitable that he is the successor of Xia Baolong.Xia Baolong, 70, has not been re -elected as the vice chairman of the CPPCC National Committee in the two sessions this year.

But those familiar with the Chinese officialdom pointed out that this inference may not be accurate.In the past, Chen Zu'er served as the executive deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macao Office of Hong Kong and Macao at the ministerial level, and in the end he did not correct it. It can be seen that the executive deputy director may not be the director of the director.A senior founder also pointed out that the news received from Beijing shows that Xia Baolong's successor has another person, not Zhou Yan.

In fact, the changes in the high -level personnel of the Chinese government have always been subtle and unpredictable. Especially in recent years, personnel appointments in the central government are frequent tricks. It is not the outside world.Whether Zhou Yan will take over to become the leader of Hong Kong and Macao in the future, it may be a bit too early to judge.
